“Not just THE BEST buttermilk biscuits, but the best GLUTEN FREE biscuits! I ate them too fast to take a photo and will be ordering more! The bacon in the MacGregor was perfect and I loved the cheese on the Pike. They're crispy on the outside, perfect for your favorite toppings, and flakey on the inside. I took them home and they paired well with breakfast and the chili I had for dinner. Huge thank you to the staff for the recommendations! If you haven't been here, what are you waiting for?“

“Great gluten free breakfast option! I ate here three times while in town because it was so good. They care about cross contamination and it's rare to find a place that has a gluten free option that's as good as the non gf stuff. The biscuits and gravy were delicious and the vibe was immaculate.

“the biscuits are good but they have to upgrade their ordering system. the only way to know how long it will take before your order is likely to be done is to go to the location in person. why can't they show an estimate on their website? when you order online, why can't they give you an estimated time that it will be done? the wait time is often about an hour and I don't want to wait around the pickup window for an hour, especially when there is almost no seating nearby“

“I came on my lunch break. I purchased a lunch special and paid a little over $25.00. That's not a special. 3 stripes and potato salad with a drink and peach cobbler. The chicken was fresh out the grease and crunchy like I like it. The potato salad was to die for. I'm from the south so it tasted like it was right out of grandma's kitchen. The only disappointment I had was to peach cobbler and the price to be a special. The crust was more like bread from a cake than crust on a pie. It crumbled as I open the tray. It had great cinnamon spices like I like it but the crust just wasn't it for me.“

“Ezell's Famous Fried Chicken remain the one, the go to in either times of triumph or trouble, the one to try and beat but not likely to ever happen. In short and sum, the best fried chicken definitively in the PNW - The Pacific Northwest, as well as very arguably Ezell's Famous Chicken may be best of the best across the whole USA Nation. Even at those levels, Ezell's is always in contention in consistent high quality food provided with great service.“

“Easy online ordering that cut the wait time. Friendly crew. The place was packed always a line. But I know why. The food was excellent. Love the Mac & cheese. Ordered enough to have more for dinner 👍🏼 the Mountain Dew (only PepsiCo product I will drink) was not working 🥲

Parking: Shared lot but plenty of parking. It’s a bit tricky getting out of the lot depending on direction you are traveling due to medians on Rainier.“
